The sharp sickle whizzed toward Chen Rui like a venomous snake. The speed was beyond his imagination. Chen Rui was taken aback and dodged sideways. However, even though he had dodged the Locking Sickle, his cloak was still cut open. A wound appeared on his arm, and there was a faint burning feeling from the wound.
Before Chen Rui could react, the Locking Sickle flew toward him again. The terrifying sharpness made Chen Rui not dare to face it head-on, so he dodged it again. Sure enough, it was the same as last time. When it brushed past his body, there was another wound.
Mikas spun the Locking Sickle and sneered, "I forgot to tell you that the true function of the flame power is enchantment. Even if it's just a brush, you will be affected by its power. You have been poisoned by the fire sickle, and your power will gradually decline until you die from the poison. However, before that, you will be chopped into hundreds of pieces!"
Everything else was fine. For Chen Rui, the poison was just a synonym for aura, so he wasn't worried at all. However, the Locking Sickle after enchantment was indeed amazingly sharp. It also had a certain special power. Other than the poison effect, the damage was quite amazing. The Great Demon's Weapon Mastery talent made the Locking Sickle more powerful. The long-distance attack made Chen Rui unable to get close.
Now that [Aurora Shot] couldn't be used, he couldn't find a way to crack it. He could only avoid it temporarily and focus on dodging.
Not sure if it was the material of the Locking Sickle or the effect of the flame enchantment, the Locking Sickle could actually extend indefinitely. The wounds on Chen Rui's body gradually increased. Fortunately, [Astral Form] and [Damage Absorption] were powerful, so his combat power wasn't greatly affected.
Mikas repeatedly attacked, but he still couldn't take it down. He frowned secretly: I initially wanted to delay for a while to let the fire sickle's poison take effect. However, after such a long time, Aguile is still alive and kicking. He isn't affected by the poison at all. It seems that I can only use my biggest trump card.
Mikas had rich combat experience. Now, he had gradually figured out Chen Rui's movement pattern. With a thought, he teleported again and appeared in front of Chen Rui. The demonic fire that was deliberately suppressed to become dim suddenly erupted. His power instantly rose to the extreme as he shouted, "Flame Snake Kill!"
The advantage of Sickle Lock should be long-range. Now that Mikas actually gave up his advantage to close the distance, he must have a powerful trick. While Chen Rui was on guard, a strong sense of danger suddenly surged in his heart. The scene in front of him changed, and the sickle actually turned into countless huge poisonous snakes that were emitting flames, baring their teeth and biting towards him. Illusion? Or magic?
The Sickle Lock was not a living thing. Even if he analyzed it, he would not be able to determine its authenticity.
Countless "vipers" instantly engulfed Chen Rui in the middle. With a whoosh, the cloaked figure was burned by the power of flames and turned into a pile of ashes.
This blow also consumed a lot of Mikas's energy. However, the Great Demon that eliminated the enemy wasn't happy. He frowned slightly and looked up abruptly. He saw a naked figure leaping high in the air. It was Chen Rui who escaped from the fire snake. What was burned just now was only the cloak.
There were several shocking wounds on Chen Rui's body. At the critical moment just now, he barely escaped from the fleeting gap above. Although he escaped, he was covered in cold sweat. Mikas's blow was definitely not an illusion. The Sickle Lock turned into hundreds in the blink of an eye. Although [Astral Form] and [Damage Absorption] were powerful, it didn't mean that he was immortal. If he was really hit, he would definitely lose his life. No wonder Mikas once said "cut into hundreds of pieces". It turned out that there was such a killer move.
Mikas reacted extremely quickly. His demonic fire was burning, and he quickly gathered the remaining power. He roared and fully unleashed [Flame Snake Kill] towards the figure that was falling from the air.
Chen Rui didn't have teleportation or flying skills, and he had no leverage in the air, so he couldn't escape anymore. Facing the hundreds of deadly fire snakes under his feet, his mind instantly became abnormally calm. The power in his palm became strange, and there was a faint light as if it was some kind of metal.
In the blink of an eye, Chen Rui's falling figure had already intertwined with the hundreds of fire snakes of [Flame Snake Kill]. "Boom!" A wave of air blasted outward with the fire snake as the center. It spread for dozens of meters, and gravel and dust were flying everywhere it passed.
In the smoke and dust, the hundreds of fire snakes could be vaguely seen suddenly stagnated, and they were all cut off at the waist. When the dust settled, the fire snakes had completely disappeared. Under the illumination of the purple moonlight, two figures intertwined. One was half-kneeling on the ground, and the other was standing still.
The one half-kneeling on the ground was Chen Rui. His back was penetrated by a sharp sickle from his right chest. Blood was constantly dripping from the tip of the sickle. His naked body was full of horrifying bloody wounds of different depths as if he was cut by thousands of knives. The other end of the sickle was held in the hands of Mikas, who was standing.
The Great Demon glanced at the sickle in his hand and showed an unbelievable look. He seemed to want to say something, but he couldn't make any sound when he opened his mouth. In a flash, there was a "zheng" sound. The center of the dark chain was broken into two. The smooth incision seemed to be cut by a sharp blade. At the same time, with Mikas's eyebrows as the axis, from his head to his crotch, a straight line of wounds appeared, marking countless blood. His whole body was split into two, and the broken body fell to the ground.
Chen Rui stretched out his left hand and grabbed the short handle of the sickle behind him. The moment he grabbed it, his body trembled in pain, but he gritted his teeth and held on. He exerted force with his left hand and pulled out the sharp weapon that was embedded in his body. Blood splashed, and he was panting heavily.
The battle with Mikas was the most dangerous battle in Chen Rui's life. When he rushed into the attack range of [Flaming Snake Kill] just now, although he relied on his keen senses to avoid the light attacks and hit the heavy ones, he still suffered countless slashes. If he didn't rely on his instinctive reaction to avoid Mikas's most fatal blow, he would be the one lying on the ground now.
< Aura Blade >, Mikas died under this new skill. < Aura Blade >'s power was more powerful than imagined. It cut Mikas and the sickle into two at the same time. Although < Aura Blade > only needed 20 auras to launch, it was an additional consumption. What it really consumed was Star Power. However, it felt like it needed less Star Power than < Aurora Shot >. At least, it didn't have the feeling of being drained instantly.
Chen Rui's injury this time was extremely serious, especially his right chest. His lung lobe was penetrated, and the blood kept flowing. Thanks to the two passive characteristics of < Astral Form > and < Damage Absorption >, he would have been dismembered when he attacked [Flaming Snake Kill]. He exchanged a bottle of Healing Potion at the counter and drank it to stop the bleeding. Then, he took out a new cloak and put it on.
There was still a space bracelet on Mikas's corpse's wrist. There should be some good stuff. As Chen Rui was about to pick up this trophy, his eyes flashed suddenly. There was a mask in his hand and he quickly covered his face. He said faintly, "Come out. Do the Great Demon race like to hide?"
"Oh? You can actually notice me? " Sparse applause came from behind a big tree. "I have to praise you. The battle just now was very exciting. You actually forcefully broke Mikas' [Flaming Snake Kill]. You can kill Mikas, so you are really famous in the Dark Moon … "
After Chen Rui advanced into the Mizar state, he always had a faint feeling that he was being peeped at. The reason why he noticed this person was because when this person approached just now, he just happened to enter the range of < Analytical Eyes >.
The < Analytical Eyes > of the Mizar state had doubled the sensing range, and it could show the opponent's race. It just showed that he was a Great Demon with a comprehensive strength rating of D. The other values were still unknown.
The person walked out slowly. It was really a male Great Demon. When Chen Rui saw the person's appearance, his heart tightened. It was actually Reus, one of the three Higher Demons under Joseph!
The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. I didn't expect there to be such an oriole hiding at the side!
"Sir Reus is really calm. He actually watched for so long without batting an eyelid." Chen Rui quickly calculated in his mind. The reason why Reus appeared here was probably because he had been following me since I came out of the arena. I risked my life to fight with Mikas just now without considering anything else. Will Reus see my true face?
From the information, Reus was the type of person who had both wisdom and courage. He was quite intelligent, but the strength of an intermediate Higher Demon was definitely not fake. He was probably a powerhouse of this level. Now, Chen Rui's stamina was greatly exhausted, and his injuries were very serious. He could no longer defeat Reus.
Reus's next sentence almost made his hair stand up, "Actually, you are the one who is calm. I admire this very much. Should I call you little apprentice? Or Sir Secretary? "
The thing that he was most worried about finally happened. This Reus really discovered Chen Rui's biggest secret!
"I don't understand what you are talking about?" Chen Rui's heart was beating fast. His eyes lit up as he thought of the newly acquired skill. He suddenly had an idea.
"I don't know what method you used to change your breath. Not only did your strength skyrocket, but even your original human scent disappeared." Reus looked at Chen Rui with interest. "If I didn't witness you killing Mikas with my own eyes, I wouldn't believe that the seemingly weak and incompetent human would actually hide such impressive strength."
As he said, the Great Demon looked like he was thinking, "It seems that Eren's loss in the Sky Battle last time was not a surprise at all. It's very likely that you still have the ability to manipulate demonic beasts …"
Chen Rui was secretly shocked. Reus's wisdom is indeed different. It is absolutely incomparable to a warmonger like Arux. He immediately said, "I don't need to explain. You can see my true face if you want. However, you must accept my challenge, just like Arux. "
"Really? Then please satisfy my curiosity. "Reus stared at the eyes behind the mask and smiled." Besides, you don't seem to have any other choice now. "
Chen Rui used the newly acquired [Camouflage] skill, took off the mask, and lifted the cloak on his head. Royce looked carefully and frowned. This face is very strange. It looks ordinary, but his eyes are bright and full of spirit.
Reus pondered, "You … are from the royal family? The ultimate move that killed Mikas just now, is it some kind of special talent? "
Chen Rui couldn't wait for Reus to think this way, so he nodded. Suddenly, he heard Reus laughing out loud, "Do you think I, Reus, am so gullible? You always wear a mask every time you appear. You should be trying to hide your true face, but you took it off so easily now. I'm almost sure that this isn't your true face. Not to mention, I've already seen your true face during the battle just now! I'm different from Arux. I have no interest in the so-called challenge. "
Chen Rui's heart sank. It seems that Reus is definitely not an easy character to get rid of.
Sure enough, the Great Demon's laughter became gloomy, "Also, you actually drank a black potion at the beginning. I'm not an idiot like Mikas who doesn't use his brain. Does this mean that Master Aldas has really broken through to the grand master level? You really have a lot of secrets. Actually, it's very simple to solve these mysteries … Can't I just catch you and interrogate you slowly? "
As soon as the laughter ended, he had already appeared in front of Chen Rui. This wasn't teleportation, but his own speed. This speed was at least three times faster than Mikas who used demonic fire!
